Synergy between Windows Phone 8.1 and the new Windows 10? Any Advice?

[mstrblueskys]

Hey WindowsCentral! Happy Windows 10 day!!! I got excited and updated all my computers today, but that was taking too long, so I went out and bought a Microsoft Lumia 640 while everything was downloading. I've been using Android for about forever and now that I'm stoked on Windows 10 and Windows Phone, I want to know how I can get the most out of this experience. I have been keeping up for the most part, but I don't know what Windows 10 will allow me to experience when partnering with a Windows Phone. I didn't have a Windows Phone when I was running 8.1, so really anything helps - it doesn't have to be 10 specific I guess.

I have photos syncing to OneDrive, but that's about as far as I have gotten.

Many Universal Apps. Buy once and own across devices. Try NOAA High Def Radar. Live tile on the phone and on the PC to show you the radar picture for your location.

There is a ton more. Happy Windows 10 Day!!! and Happy Synergy. Have fun exploring.

Out of that list, what is really unique to WP/W10M?

I am about to change my WP8.1 L930 to an iPhone and I'm trying to find out if I will lose any apps/functionality/Windows integration.

Sorry... I only dabbled slightly with an iPhone and that was quite some time ago. I really have no idea. Try asking our friends at iMore. They can't all be Mac users.
